[Micromax A116] mono28aug:
no such thing called best rom!

bro! there's isnt such thing called best rom...you gotta try all to know which suits you best..:) and its a rule in xda, not to ask such questions...keep trying all to find out what suits you most ! good luck

and yeah every work is respected here so u cannot say one is best and the other one is bad !! asking such type of questions offends devs :) anyways good luck (y)

Thnx for ur viewz.

I am presently happy with the Stock ROM, just deleted some bloatwares.

Thought if some battery improving ROM is there, then will install it.

[Micromax A116] thunderising:
Okay guys, let's discuss this. Here's a solution that I've got (we need 10,000 signatures not 1500, won't cut it otherwise).

Do you know sites like GOGI.IN and iGYAAN.IN? I can try to get an article published by them. An article on such sites would get us HUGE publicity, and the PETITION would get a ton of SUPPORT from all MMX users!

What say guys? Can we all pitch in views about this?

I want to root my Canvas HD phone but when I try to run SP flash tools, the tools are stuck on the "searching" status.

Finally found the perfect way to make gps work on 116HD. I am sure every one is aware of the fact that some of the 116 models sold had a lot of problem getting a fix for navigation.

This is how mine works:

1. First download : GPS status test and fix :https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cochibo.gpsstatus&hl=en

Install any 'fasterfix application' OR manually replace GPS config file in system/etc with a config file of your country.

1. In settings, turn on location reporting service for google.

2. Turn on GPS and A-GPS in location settings. (Don't turn on EPO, It didnt work for me ! )

3 Now open up google maps/navigation and search the destination.

4. Navigate, it will try to get a fix but wont be able to, in my case.

5 Minimize navigation and open GPS status test and fix.

6. In the options, select reset GPS and then select "Get xtra Data"

7. WAIT, You'll get a fix within 2-3 minutes

8. Maximize navigation, it will greet you with your first direction.

The steps might look too complicated to repeat everytime you wish to drive around, but thats the only sure shot way it works for me.

Users who can sacrifice your battery life a little can also use "ActiveGPS", It freezes the lock and runs in background so that you are all set to go whenever the need of navigation arises.

Thanks guys, usually i am not a very active contributor, but this small flaw in MMX really pinched me as i chose it over "grand", so wanted to share. :good:

Please share any other method if any. I've tried everything ! 'GPS fix' application is a nice option for non-rooted users but it requires a fast connection and clear view of the sky.

This is not fair, why don't they allow us to download the ROM from ftp, like v2 ROM?

Most of the uses have already rooted there device and now if we want to have v4.2.1 first we need to unroot our device and then go to service center and then got it updated and then root it once again.

Have you rooted your device as well? I am planning to flash unflashable 4.2.1 ROM after few days. I have just flashed the flashable ROM, the other link I have posted. It is also working great but I didn't see OTA, though there is an option of of "Preferred Install Location" in the Settings>Storage so that we can select Phone Storage or SD card as default Write Disk.

I wonder can we flash the Stock ROM without Recovery.img of Stock ROM or CWM's Recovery.img so that we can have CWM Based recovery already?

I think it can be done simultaneously so we don't have to flash CWM based recovery afterwards.

After copying the back ups I'll be removing this card out of the phone during the ROM flashing operation. Being a newbie I'm a bit wary of the process of flashing ROM. Please help me with the foll:

1. Is there any easy method of keeping track of the apps I'll want to reinstall?

2. Will Titanium backup allow me to take backups of only selected apps from my phone?

[Micromax A116] nice_guy75:
No you don't need to unroot. If you have TWRP installed already, you've following options:

1. Use SP Flash Tool to flash your device with official non- flashable ROM. It will flash your recovery as well.

2. Just uncheck the recovery option after loading scatter file this way you can save your current recovery.

3. You can select custom recovery image in place of default recovery image and flash, NOT TESTED THOUGH.

4. Just flash your device with flashable v4.2.1 ROM.
[Micromax A116] gregferns:
Yes. Titanium backup can make selective app backups also. Atleast in the pro version.

You can also make a list of your apps using. MY APPLICATIONS app.
